It's POLL For You -- ILM artist poll #103 -- JANET JACKSON (voting open until July 24, 2020)

so, after jamming nothing but janet the past week or so, i'm ready to officially start the rhythm nation political party. who's with me?

LET'S GO

MINNEAPOLIS!

is it too late? if not whats the ultimate cut off?

Ok I just sent one in xp

If I were to do my ballot for the 00s album reboot today I wd absolutely include All for You. 'Masterpiece' is def a word that came to mind a few times while I've been listening to it over the past week

it's definitely better than its reputation.

I'm going to say the ultimate official cut off is tonight at midnight so that I can hopefully roll out the poll next week.

(If any stragglers come in overnight though, I'll still include them.)

thanks!

'Masterpiece' is def a word that came to mind a few times

that's the only word for it :)

ballot submitted.

And received!

And with that and no other ballots submitted overnight, I hereby officially declare this poll closed!

funny how time flies!

oops

DJP, if you think you can get it to me by the end of today, I'm happy to include it in. (Same goes for everyone, really, but after that I need to get the graphics in motion.)

whoops now!

lol i sent a late one just now

I should mention that 135 songs have gotten at least one vote, which means about half of them will end up on the 77.

this poll is gonna rule.

Aiming to start with the sidebar polls on Monday, followed by four days of tracks.

Alright, final tally of ballots for the tracks portion was 33. We are now final-chimes-of-Rhythm-Nation-ringing-out closed for new ballots. Sorry not sorry.

MINNEAPOLIS!

C'MOOOOOOOOONNNNNNN

lol I am so bad at this

sorry Eric, I did intend to vote but somehow couldn't get my shit together

Based on some of what you've been stunting for upthread, I think you'll be more or less cool with the results as they are.

Mostly more tho.

currently jammin "when i think of you" in stater bros, it's a sign!

Control: The Remixes always reminds me of this snippet in the Faith-era Rolling Stone interview with George Micheal;

"How do they get that sound?” He is driving down London’s Piccadilly, turning heads in nearby cars as he marvels at the thunderous bass on the Janet Jackson remix album that’s playing on the CD player in his black Mercedes sedan.

Control: The Remixes

oh hey there's an album of peak era janet that i've never heard.

(looks up details)

it was never released in america ò_ó

and oh hey, the "cool summer mix" absolutely fucking slays.

i could have been jammin this heat for the last twenty three years if i didn't live in merckah, but whatever, this is fine. i guess.

ò_ó

iirc it's on American spotify now tho, along with a ton of other Janet remixes

lmao it's almost twice the length of the album itself

Holy shit, y'all, Spotify has remix "singles" for Rhythm Nation, Miss You Much, Escapade, Alright, Come BAck To Me, Black Cat, Love Will Never Do, and State Of The World that are ALL album-length as well (like 45-75 min)

can't wait for this
